Q

As a driver what are the pros and cons of the wing and the spoiler? Which do prefer to have on your car?
James Gibson, Baltimore, Md.

March 4, 2010

 

A I’m not really sure. The first time I will drive a COT car with a spoiler on it will be at the Talladega test in a couple of weeks. I always thought stock cars looked better with a spoiler on them. I am interested to drive it and see what it’s like.
   

Q It was so great to see you at Daytona Matt. My dad and I drove down from Watertown and had quite the experience for our first 500. Congrats on your top 10 finish! Glad we could be there for it! My question is this: How did you come about to have the No. 17?
Stephanie Fischer, Watertown, Wis.
A Thanks, I’m glad you got to go check out the race and enjoyed it. Robbie Reiser was always number 71 when he raced in Wisconsin. When he moved south to pursue NASCAR racing, 71 wasn’t available in the Busch series, so he chose 17. When I started driving his car, that was the number on it and we were able to keep it through the years and move up to Cup with it.
    

Q

Hi Matt, I was watching one of your NASCAR media day interviews and you had said that you didn’t have any of your trophies up in your house except the championship trophy, and I was wondering were do you keep all of the other trophies? 
Alex Geiger, Woodburn, Ind.

A They are all at the Matt Kenseth Fan Club HQ in Cambridge, Wis. If you get a chance, you should go check them out.
   

Q Hey Matt If you were the bossman, would you keep the Chase or return it to the good old days?
Cale Balthaser, Bernville, Pa.
A That’s a tough one. I’m kind of a traditionalist, so I would probably say good old days.
   

Q What kind of watch (brand and model please) do you wear? We want to purchase one like it but are unsure exactly which one it is. Thanks.
Gina David, Clifton Springs, N.Y.
A

Thanks. I wear a Citizen Promaster SST and love it! (Details here.) Go to citizenwatch.com and check out all their watches!
